Easy Peasy...

Wanted to quickly share the easiest pencil roll ever! Saw it on the Lifestyle channel a couple of weeks ago, but not sure what show it was (maybe Martha?). It's made from a placemat!!

Just lay it down as though you are setting the table, fold up the bottom to a bit past half way, using a pencil as a guide to the size. Then divide into as many even spaces as possible and sew down each, tucking a long folded ribbon into one end before sewing down.

Done!

Hope all the teachers are having a great break - I am trying to cram as many school holiday activities into each weekend as I can, so not much creative going on at the moment.

P.S. "A holiday is like love - anticipated with pleasure, experienced with discomfort, and remembered with nostalgia." Anon.
